>>1383704>spending huge amounts of money makes me queasyWhat counts as a "huge amounts of money" to you?
Because you CAN indeed get a great gaming and multimedia PC for the same price you'll find Piss5 consoles on the store shelves.
Even cheaper if you build one yourself and know what you're doing.
I've personally assembled 3 computers these past 20 years, and I have never spent more than 1100€ on any one of them.
The last one I built back in 2011, and I'm writing on it this very second. Only did minor upgrades to it back in 2017, all using 2nd hand parts (sans a new, cheap SSD).
Just don't bite the "OMG you NEED teh biggest, newest shit to even run Pong!!!" memes.
